smokingarthur Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I am shocked to see how inexpensively you can go to ANY GNR show, especially the Vegas shows. I saw two tickets go for $100! It seems that there are many more tickets circulating than actual antendees to these coming shows. What does that say about the unsold portion of tickets? Who will pay face value when you can get the same ticket dramatically cheaper? I imagine even the four sold out dates don't take into consideration how many of those tickets will actually be used. They really need to do better PR soon.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr.drummin Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Stop complaining!Get some cheap GNR tickets while you can. Most people probably don't even know they are playing in the US yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blzbub Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Same thing happened in Vegas in 2001. Who's going to buy tickets from a scalper and pay for flights and a hotel room in Vegas with the specter of potentially finding out that the tickets are fakes at the door?

smokingarthur Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Stop complaining!Get some cheap GNR tickets while you can. Most people probably don't even know they are playing in the US yet.Whose complaining idiot? It is a simple observation. When you can buy $320 worth of tickets for $100, it says a lot. Some of you clowns are really fucking amusing. I made a observatory statement, but some of you assholes are inflamed over everything. When I think of some of the worthles posts I see on here. This is a fucking GNR forum. We are supposed to discuss this type of stuff, not what Axl is wearing and who he is fucking. As for people not buying from scalpers because of fake tickets? Believe me, there is a very small market for selling counterfeit GNR tickets at this time. I assure you 99% of the GNR tickets for sale on Ebay are genuine. Look at how many people are selling for half of face value with a buy it now? Look how many GNR tickets are for sale from scalpers? If you have any brains, you will see what I am talking about. I really hope these shows are full of people:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patience 4 Axl Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Who will pay face value when you can get the same ticket dramatically cheaper?I did. For whatever reason these tickets aren't selling as fast as they did for the NY shows, but then again they were also half the price.And yeah, no sense having counterfeit tix when people can't even get rid of the real ones.
